Happy Birthday to ya! Tony winner and seasoned stage and screen vet Debra Monk is celebrating her 65th birthday in the most selfless and sassy way possible, a one-night-only concert benefiting Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS. The Debra Monk Birthday Bash: Totally Hot and a Little Dirty will take place February 24, 2014 at the Gerald W. Lynch Theater at John Jay College.

"I can't think of a better way to celebrate my birthday than throwing a big ol' party with great music, stories and a few dirty jokes thrown in along the way," Monk said in a statement. "I wouldn't do it, though, if it wasn't all to benefit Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS, an organization very near and dear to my heart."
